BBC1 digital signal in West Yorkshire.
Is anyone else getting very bad break up of their digital signal, I was
watching on the Freeview T.V. while having tea and it was dire, it's not
much better on the Virgin Mediocre V+ box, I've had to resort to
watching on analogue it's so bad.

No, a bit overcast and osing to slart, misseling, slight precipitation,
it did go away shortly after I posted.

I remember when they broadcast 21 Years of the Two Ronnies.
The next year they repeated it and changed the name to "22 Years of the Two
Ronnies"!
